PDP should be concerned about expelling Wike. No reasonable politician will remain in PDP except people like Fayose.

I hope he's not going to fall for this "food" being offered to him? It seems that parties have noticed his desire to be the flag bearer of any political party. So, almost, all the parties are wooing him. He should stay with the coalition and fight for the ticket. If he looses, he should remain and support whoever emerges as the flag bearer and wait for another opportunity.

In the final analysis, Gringori seems to be the very one without any principles or decency amongst all the politicians. Dude's just hopping from here to there like a howler.

Meanwhile, let's evaluate this character called Gringori Obi a little deeper

From religious leaders to politicians to artists, scientists, sportsmen, entertainers, etc, one of the things you could point to that tells an excellent individual apart from a mediocre character are his protégées and mentees.

They are often seen excelling in the same fields their mentors once excelled in or are currently excelling in. These mentees aren't difficult to spot, and they waste no time in giving credit to their mentors for how far they've come in their chosen path.

Awolowo has mentees and we can name some of them who are still excelling today. Mandela has, Kennedy has, Michael Jackson has, Buhari has, Tinubu had, Nnamdi Azikiwe has, Steve Jobs do, Bill Gates do, Albert Einstein has, etc etc.

Even criminals have mentees.

Can anyone name just one mentee of Peter Gringori Obi, be they in politics or business? Someone we all know benefitted from his tutelage and is currently excelling in their chosen field of career. Where are his commissioners, local government administrators, aides, etc? If he doesn't have any of these, what exactly then sets him apart as a good leader?
Meanwhile he is giving your Oga sleepless nights

I think Obi will only listen and give whatever they are saying a thought after their November Convention in Ibadan.

If another Wike lackey emerges as Chairman or Secretary or anything consequential in the party, trust me Obi will not be foolish into walk into an unhidden trap.

But one thing is simple, there’s nothing wrong with Obi going back to PDP especially with the party’s rooted nationwide structure.

All it will take for PDP to come back to life is for Obi to go back into the platform.
Which platform and structure? Structure that has been demolished, leaving only moles and jesters like Wike, Ikpeazu, Makinde, Ortom, Ugwuanyi, Fayose, etc?

Validated:
Obi should ask PDP to meet him at the Coalition. However based, the following conditions MUST be met:
1. Expel Wike, Orbih, Fayose, Ortom, and all G5
2. Hold a convention to elect new executives, with both National Secretary and Legal Adviser being members of Obidients Movement
3. Zone presidency to the SE of Nigeria for equity.
4. Be open to work with the Coalition in all areas.

NA DEM DEY RUSH US! grin grin grin grin
You forgot to add Peter Mbah of Enugu State, he should be expelled too for keeping silent on PDP Party affairs.

PDP’s strategic move to woo Obi could shift 2027 dynamics. It is leverage in favour of Southeast strength.

They are playing right into APC's hands...in fact it must be the APC facilitating the reconciliation, they will recreate 2023 all over again and split the votes three ways grin

The people calling Obi a Tinubu agent might have been right all along

Just look at the kind of plan Wike and Tinubu are pursuing, without Obi Tinubu can't win and without Obi Atiku also can't win
That's why they continue to push Obi in the news through their minions to give him a false sense of importance and relevance and to continue to rile his supporters
The whole idea is to ensure that he runs

PETER OBI must never associate himself with PDP, not even a secret meeting.

Tinubu and wike are behind all these shenanigans by PDP turncoats.

PETER OBI is the best for the job, continue your discussions with ADC and ATIKU.

Keep away from PDP
And with Tinubu and Atiku, Obi can't win
Re: 2027: PDP in talks with Peter Obi for major return – Abduljabbar Rufai by Bendeco02: 7:46am On Jul 31, 2025
PDP are funny grin

They need Obi back to the party in order to make way for tinubu to win.

If they like Obi, they should sack Wike, Makinde and other APC moles in PDP especially from SW, then marge PDP to ADC

This is really becoming very serious the only way out is for the pdp to micro zone their presidential ticket to the south east that's only when obi can take the risk to join the pdp at this crucial time.

What happened to Wikehuh

Wike should be their flag bearer now, since he owns the party

Well said! I am not a fan of Tinubu but until Obi learns the art of building a political structure and delayed gratification from Tinubu instead of jumping from one party to another like a directionless Atiku, he will never achieve much in Nigeria's brand of politics until he is tired.

As politically dumb as Buhari was, he succeeded in building CPC when ANPP was constantly giving him headache at some point after being infiltrated by political opponents..

It was what gave him leverage in the merger with Tinubu's ACN.. Imagine he was a permanent political tenant/harlot like Atiku or Obi always looking for a ready made platform to rent before ditching it for a newer bride, he would have ended up frustrated like Atiku..

Obi should seriously watch it.. This Atiku political harlotry model he is currently following is not in anyway beneficial for a very serious politician in the long run.

With Wike still running and calling the shots in PDP, if PO returns to PDP thinking he will be given the presidential ticket to fly the party's flag, then he will shooting himself by himself with the weapon bought by himself.

Wike has said it countless times that he won't advise PDP to produce any candidate for president in the next election, cos his boss Tinubu is doing a good job
Anyone who has ears should use it for its job.

Tell Wike to officially resign from the PDP. Then we can talk.

Obi is not for sale. He remains in the coalition and thsts it.
Obi is jumping from pillar to post like Atiku. He's a pawn to divide the votes 😞. As he was used in Labour party, they want to use him again. And most of the labour party winners have changed political parties.

Atiku is also in ADC like Obi, who will get the ticket?. What's left in PDP for Obihuh

If I were obi,I would move to the pdp,PDP can offer him what lp or adc can't in 10 years.....it better puts him in good stead for 31.....pdp is still the biggest opposition party in Nigeria whether you like it or not.

Peter Obi will forever be a source of stinging pain to the APC. Let Tinubu produce his colleagues from the alumni of the schools he said he attended first.

PDP should leave Peter obi alone it's too late now. They used their incompetence to send him away from PDP but because they were shocked he won the last election everybody now needed Peter, to hell
Which election did he win? I don't understand o, in another world or another country?
